REMEMBER WHEN there were three office supply stores on Garnet Avenue alone? They were also known as stationers. Vic’s Office Supply was at 1753 Garnet, San Diego Office Supply at 1345 Garnet and Fox Office Supply at 1459 Garnet. I think I took this photo around 1985 when it had upgraded to Fox Business Systems. That’s Sleepy Hollow waterbeds on the right. Hoboken Pizza occupies the old Fox Office Supply site today.
